It’s rare, though not unheard of, that I recommend a fic, but this one is really stellar. It won’t be for everyone (it has mpreg elements) but it is Top Spock, Bottom Jim, Alpha/Omega dynamics, and the emotions just pack a punch.
It’s long. With the first chapter being 30,000 words and a second chapter eventually expected.
It’s been a while since I talked about THE WINTER STORY. And there’s a reason for that. I’ve not even started it, obviously. To say I am behind on everything is probably an understatement. I meant to have less works in progress and now I have more than I can handle, really. I feel like I can’t devote the time I would need to for this story and so, for now, it’s on hold until I feel a little less overwhelmed. I definitely still want to write it. I have the plot mostly figured out and everything.
In some ways it sort of mirrors City on the Edge of Forever, but not really. I’m actually not much of a fan of that episode. Not because it’s a bad episode, but because I hate the fact that Jim falls in love with Edith right in front of Spock. And yes, I know they aren’t really together in the show blah blah blah, but you tell me Spock’s not feeling something when there’s that scene where he comes out of their apartment to see Jim in the hallway with Edith.
Anyway, my story, THE WINTER STORY, has no pain in the ass Edith characters, so no worries there, but I will be using the Guardian for certain purposes and Spock will be going back in time.
But all that doesn’t matter if I never get it done.
I did notice though on my completed works spreadsheet that I have 90 completed works. Pretty cool.
Here, once again, are my inspiring pictures for THE WINTER STORY.
So it’s supposed to be hot here this week. Like 90s. I was enjoying the cooler weather. I don’t want snow or anything but come on.
As you know, I posted the first chapter of Young and Beautiful on A03. I will probably post the second chapter, when it’s done, here first. Blue_Meets_Green did a wonderful cover for me for the story so be sure to check it on on AO3.
I’m anxious about the election tomorrow. I am sure you all can imagine what I want to happen. I am not going to watch election coverage. I’ll probably be watching my digital copy of Hell or High Water. I’d rather watch Chris any day.
I want pretty

Sometimes when people suggest stories they end up changing from their suggestions because I plot as I go. I intend to write it just as they suggested but I just can’t. It’s the way I write.
My favorite video creator of Spirk Fanfiction videos posted another one. It is very short but it really goes with some of my work, angsty and such, so it’s perfect and I think the song is cool too. Check it out I Hate You I Love You. And yes I did make a copy.
I’m tired and cranky. So I don’t have much to say this week. Enjoy
So my favorite Spirk video maker has a new video out. Check it out here
I make a copy for myself with every one she does and this one will be no exception. I was waiting for her to do one with Beyond footage so I was very excited when I received notification.
I spent this past weekend in Mammoth. If you don’t know what Mammoth is you should google it. Mammoth Lakes. It’s beautiful. It was a long drive there Friday night after work and we didn’t get there until about 1 AM. Anyway we had a great time though it was cold and as we were leaving Sunday morning snow was on all the mountains and hills around us.
While I was there I got an idea for a new fic. I intend to start it today but don’t know when I will begin posting it. No details as yet because I want it to be a surprise.
I have to wonder at celebs sometimes. Why would you adopt a dog right before going away on a week long road trip with your buddies?
I’m having a little get-together this coming Sunday. I intended to serve hot tea and coffee but since they are now predicting it is going to be about 85 I guess I will be serving iced tea. I am ready for it to be cool. I got spoiled in Mammoth where I was freezing. I really don’t know how you people who live on the East coast do the snow every damn day thing in the winter. Brrrrr
Edit: I took out my complaint. It was clear to me it didn’t work as I intended it to and probably made ME look bad.
As the title says there, I am sort of in limbo about what’s coming next in the updates. I am working on the next chapter of My Devotion, You are the Light That’s Leading Me, the One-Shot and Young and Beautiful. None are finished. Not sure if I will have anything finished but my goal is to get something finished and updated on Friday.
I’m still working on my Old Married Spirk story but I have all of November to post that, though like I said before I intend to post it sooner rather than later.
I’ll be away all weekend so there won’t be any updates. In fact that’s sort of going to be a pattern going forward through the end of the year. This is my busy time with parties, plans, family, friends, and holidays.Through October I have plans every weekend and into November as well. I expect December to be likewise busy, so just expect me to take most weekends off posting wise.
Because my plate is super full (got one story finished thankfully) and Christmas stories will be coming up soon, I expect THE WINTER STORY not to get going before January. It’s going to have angsty sad elements for sure. I am hoping to get a story or two completed before I get working on that too much.
Because he’s beautiful, I must conclude with a Chris picture. Oh look, Zach got in there too.
